Thanks for the info again. Then I might have no issue to go with it, since it 
will be pre-installed in the device. Thanks again.

There is no hook in B2G to facilitate this, so you need to modify the system 
app. That's why you need to have a rooted device. If you're working for a 
device manufacturer they can just ship the modified codebase.

Thanks Jan for this thing. My app is currently a Certified app and I am running 
a rooted device. 
Curious mind wants to know, why rooted device is needed? Just because it uses 
any sort of Certified API?
My app will be certified app and will come pre-installed with non-rooted device 
I think. In that case I don't think it will be a issue. What do you think?
